On August 4, 2021, at about 11:52 p.m., a call was received at 9-1-1 Sparks. The caller said an unknown male, later identified as 30-year-old Sparks resident Adam Barton, pulled a gun on him in the 1400 block of Victorian Avenue. The same was confirmed by witnesses who also called 9-1-1.
The sheriff’s office says investigators determined Barton approached a man and his 10-year-old daughter near the outdoor bus plaza and pressed a gun in the man’s side Aug. 4 during Hot August Nights.
At some point, the men separated from one another, and the victims began to walk away, according to Washoe County officers. Barton is seen on video approaching the father and daughter two more times, with the daughter ducking and taking cover behind a metal box at RTC Centennial Plaza.
Responding officers say Barton refused their commands to drop the gun and was moving towards civilians when he was shot.
Barton was booked into the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office on Aug. 13 on one felony count of violating probation. On Aug. 16, detectives booked Barton on charges of battery with a deadly weapon by a prisoner, probationer, or parolee; assault with a deadly weapon; resisting a public officer with use of a firearm; owning or possession of a gun by a prohibited person; and carrying a concealed weapon without a permit.
